Sentences with phrase «small perturbations»

Reaching the necessary level of precision requires correcting the data for small perturbations in Earth's orbit owing to the other planets in our solar system.

«The aim of this quantum technique is to change the orientation of the spin in a targeted manner, thereby minimizing errors caused by small perturbations,» says Glaser.

I came to astronomy by way of mathematics, which is a great tool for designing ways to see very small perturbations in data.

[Response: If you really believe that the climate is so sensitive to such small perturbations, then you should be even more worried about GW, which is an even bigger preturbation.

Although the simulation conditions in the MMD 20th - century simulations were not identical to those in the CMIP1 & 2 control runs, the differences do not alter the conclusions summarised below because the large - scale climatological features dominate, not the relatively small perturbations resulting from climate change.

What the big banks and the fossil fuel industry have tried to influence is cap and trade with offsets, because that would allows business as usual to basically continue with only small perturbations.

Cloud brightening yields a much greater impact on the weather for a much smaller perturbation than directly cooling the ocean, he explained.

Two of these steady - state solutions are stable, in the sense explained previously (small perturbations engender forces which tend to restore the system to the steady state).

While there is truth in that picture, it ignores the complexities of a system that led the initially small perturbation of the «sub-prime» mortgage crisis to morph into systemic collapse.

Our fly - on - the - wall look at scientists poring over data on small perturbations measured with ultrasensitive instruments shows clearly how answers lead to more questions.

I also had the opportunity to work with a robotic manipulandum that was able to exert small perturbations to the human arm and track the position of the moving hand.

Stop - and - go traffic waves — «phantom traffic jams» — emerge when small perturbations — such as a lane change, merge, or just because of natural osciallations in human driving — amplify and grow backwards along the road.

Secondly, small perturbations filter without substituílas also known by other function over time lose resolution in large structures.

[M] itigation scenarios are not small perturbations on easily forecastable baseline scenarios, where linear «first order» differences would dominate.

There are, incidentally, other scientific problems with the paper: notably that the model used was only suitable for small perturbations but the results are for rather large perturbations; and that the estimate of CO2 sensitivity was too low by a factor of about 3.

An ensemble consists of a number of simulations undertaken with the same forcing scenario, so that the forced change Tf is the same for each, but where small perturbations to remote initial conditions result in internally generated climate variability that is different for each ensemble member.

It is significantly larger than what is found in traditional, non-exceptional point - sensing schemes using very small perturbations.

Since such models can not account for the climate system's apparent sensitivity to small perturbations in solar energy apparently brought about by the very long term changes in the Earth's orbit about the Sun, they may also underestimate climate sensitivity to energy output fluctuations caused by solar activity, even during the eleven - year Schwabe cycle.

We offer a formal definition, introducing the term «tipping element» to describe subsystems of the Earth system that are at least subcontinental in scale and can be switched — under certain circumstances — into a qualitatively different state by small perturbations.

And even if an economy is drifting inexorably towards a tipping point, they showed that small perturbations of the system parameters can move an economy around a tipping point, thus averting it.

But the states of qubits are also fragile: Small perturbations from the outside world can easily collapse the superpositions to just a 0 or a 1.

Apparently the climate was so delicately balanced that almost any small perturbation might set off a great shift.

«They're very small perturbations, but they add up,» says Eric Steinbring of the National Research Council Canada, in Victoria.

Rather, the Moffitt investigators demonstrate the tendency of complex systems to magnify some small perturbation (i.e. the flapping butterfly wing) can actually be exploited.

We utilize an unusual topological feature associated with exceptional points of a physical system to enhance the response of an optical sensor to very small perturbations, such as those introduced by nanoscale objects.

One way to fool an AI into misclassifying an image is by adding in small perturbations that make the AI think it looks like something else.

The beauty of the exceptional point sensor is the smaller the perturbation, the larger the enhancement compared to a conventional sensor.»

The parameters controlling the system can be transparently combined into a single control, and there exists a critical value of this control from which a small perturbation leads to a qualitative change in a crucial feature of the system, after some observation time.

There are, incidentally, other scientific problems with the paper: notably that the model used was only suitable for small perturbations but the results are for rather large perturbations; and that the estimate of CO2 sensitivity was too low by a factor of about 3.

Model simulations of the thermohaline circulation indicate that for small perturbations, recovery can occur in a few decades.

Apparently the climate was so delicately balanced that almost any small perturbation might set off a large shift.
